Hi, I'm a newbie here! This is (hopefully) not going to look like spamming, but I did look across this e-Lottery thing a while ago, towards the end of last year. They did have an annual fee of £9.99, but I didn't want to take any chances.
Sometime in May, they decided to scrap the fee (presumably because it put people off joining even if it was a small amount, and also because of the credit crunch), so it's now absolutely free to join. Additionally, I've created a weblink (admittedly, that did cost me £6.88 to purchase a webpage) which links to the VWD (Virtual World Direct) site, who are legal. Basically, the idea is to earn money by getting people to play the lottery online, but through syndicates rather than at the shops. I haven't actually made anything (I only set it up yesterday) but it looks promising.
Again, this isn't meant to be spamming - I'm also on Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, so I am a real person (the username is a combination of my first and last names). However, this is a free opportunity. What isn't free is the syndicate scheme, where you pay £5 or £10 per week to join a syndicate in order to increase your chances of winning, supposedly by a lot. I may do this further on in the summer when I get back to summer job and hopefully a proper job (I graduate in a month!) and thus have more money. So this is just a heads-up of sorts.
Let me know what you think!

I also tried VWDs e-lottery syndicate a few years ago. Play the lottery for free! What a laugh, I played for 6 months and as well as paying £10 a week to play I also spent over £900 trying to promote it to others. Got one or two people to play but they didn't stay long. £1,160 to play for 6 months doesn't sound like free to me!0

Hi I am also a newbie here, I looked into this last year, even posted a thread on
a business forum, and hey guess what, every one told me to stay well away ...0 -
Another helpful post by the person who couldn't think of anything reasonable to say against me being involved in Kleeneze so he simply slurred my character by accusing me of ripping off old ladies. I do love it when people give you the ammunition to throw back in their own faces. I can do this time and time again if I wanted to. The evidence is on these forums for all the people to see so nobody can say I am slurring your character. You have done that for yourself!BargainGalore wrote: »You have a habit of falling for MLM scams don't you? :rolleyes:0

MLM isnt a scam. the big problem with MLM is the payouts and the margins of profit make it very dfficult to mae any money. I used to be a part of them but eventually gave up because they were not my idea of 'working for yourself'.0
